Creator / Paul Hogan

"The secret to my success is that I bit off more than I could chew and chewed as fast as I could."

Paul Hogan, AM (born 8 October 1939) is an Australian actor, comedian, writer, and television presenter.

He's by far best known for his portrayal of Michael/Mick "Crocodile" Dundee in the "Crocodile" Dundee series of movies. With that role, he has come to symbolize the World's Most Australian Man, until he was superseded by Steve Irwin in the 1990s. Hogan later portrayed a version of himself in commercials for Outback Steakhouse and Subaru Outback. Also, before Crocodile Dundee, he starred in a famous Australian tourism commercial for the United States market in which he said, "I'll slip an extra shrimp on the barbie for you." (Australians, by the way, almost exclusively call shrimps and prawns just prawn.)

He was married to fellow Crocodile Dundee actress Linda Kozlowski from 1990 to 2014.

Not to be confused with the celebrity butler who hosted Joe Millionaire.
